Just inside the entrance to Barrow Park lies a memorial to William Thomas Forshaw, of the Manchester Regiment, who was awarded a Victoria Cross for his bravery in action during the Gallipoli campaign for over forty hours between the 7^th and 9^th August 1915.

Information board:-

The plaque at Dumbarton Central railway station commemorating the employees of the Dumbarton and Balloch Joint line who were killed during the Great War.

There also used to be a Great War Memorial plaque at Dumbarton East Station but since the station buildings were demolished some while back I have no idea what happened to it.

A memorial in Barrow to the men of two submarines of the Royal Australian Navy, built in Barrow-in-Furness and lost in the Great War.

Submarine AE 1 was lost off Papua New Guinea in September 1914, with all hands.

AE 2 was the first submarine to penetrate the Sea of Marmara in the Dardanelles campaign, where she  was damaged by a Turkish torpedo boat and scuttled by her crew, who were captured. Four died as POWs.

I published my photo of the War Memorial at Fulwell here.

Recently I received a comment on that post from Phil Cockton saying “Look at it now,” so I made a search on the internet.

I found this BBC news page.

I have taken the liberty of copying the photo from it.

By the time we got to Balmoral it was far too late in the day for a visit. So we just scouted the outside.

Gates to Balmoral Estate. With monograms GR for George V and MR for Queen Mary:-

On the appraoch road from the car park lies a War Memorial unveiled by King George V in 1922.

Note the swastikas (or fylfots) at base of the inscription. These are in a different orientation to the later German swastikas and were good luck symbols.
The names on the upper block are of Balmoral estate employees, the lower ones are for men from the nearby village of Crathie.

Dedication plaque:-

Since we were close to Ballater after leaving Corgarff and I had seen its War Memorial on television when the late Queen’s funeral procession passed through the town I thought I should take the chance to photograph it myself.

It’s a granite cross rising from a wall where the names are inscribed, standing in front of the church on Bridge Street. Unfortunately there was a tractor right behind it that day:-

Dedication and names:-

There was what I assumed was a Great War Centenary bench nearby:-
